Logo for Mark Lamarr - Mark Lamarr and The Bamboos in session

Mark Lamarr expands your musical knowledge with his eclectic taste in music, plus some old school funk and soul styles from Australian band The Bamboos. The founding father of New Orleans R 'n' B piano, legend Professor Longhair is this week's featured artist and the music that inspired a teenage Gram Parsons makes up this week's featured album Radiogram. Marks aural massage comes from the Rocksteady period with a track by John Parish and we go back to 1933 for this week's pre-war track from native Hawaiian, Sol Hoopii. Mark will also be reviewing new releases from Dollar Bill and Robyn Hitchcock and playing listener requests for Lou Rawls, Betty Everett and Eddy Hinton.
